About this episode

Natty Harris discusses creativity, emotional well-being, and the joys of good pens while sharing laughs and insights.

After a pretty emotional main episode, we ease things up a bit with Natty Harris in this week's Spark. And yes, there's still depth, but there's also plenty of laughs. We get into the creative trends Natty's quietly over (sorry, sans serif lovers), the tiny things that can instantly improve your day, and why a really good pen might be one of life's greatest underrated joys. There's also a very relatable chat about overthinking, writing, and that awkward gap between what's in your head and what actually makes it onto the page. Natty shares her creative hero, Frida Kahlo, and why being unapologetically yourself is harder than it sounds but absolutely worth striving for. Plus, we build the ultimate dinner party guest list, talk Netflix obsessions, and get into the kind of questions that are somehow both silly and weirdly revealing. And of course, we end on a high note with possibly the best question we've ever had for a future guest. It involves pasta. You've been warned.
